There will be no examinations.
Each student is expected to do homework assignments,respond to in-class
quizzes and submit the final project with a written report on the topic
as agreed upon by the student and the instructor. The final grade will
be determined on a 0 to 100 scale as follows:

Some projects (homeworks)
will be assigned to teams of students, where your partner will be selected
on rotating basis. After each project, you will present results, and
your performance will be evaluated by your partner and your peers.

Homework will be
assigned every couple of weeks. You should expect to have from 4 to
6homework assignments during the semester. You are required to do all
homework.

General requirements
to homework:

All
homework will be due at the beginning of class.

Late homework
will not be accepted unless you made a prior arrangement with the
instructor or have a valid excuse recognized by the university.

The
homework is expected to be an individual work. If two or more students'
homework are similar/identical, the homework score will be divided by
the number of party involved).

Expect
to present most of your homework assignments in class. The presentation
length is limited to 5 minutes, plus additional 2 minutes for
questions. Depending on the class size, the number of times a student
will have to make a homework presentation will vary.

The particular home work
assignments will specify additional requirements.

For each
assignment, students must turn in a formal report that includes:

Title
page with your name, homework's due date, current date, homework title
and number.

Problem
statement.

Solution
outline. The solution outline should clearly indicate the general idea
and methods used to solve problem.

Executable
software. Supply the software on floppy or CD disk. Provide clear
instructions how to run the software and execute the test cases shown
in the report. The test cases must be executable by typing in no more
than a single line of code. (Hint: use shell scripts to automate test
cases)

Each
student is expected to select and write a Fuzzy Logic application
program to demonstrate the high level of understanding in the subject
of Fuzzy Logic beyond the normal homework assignments. The students
will formally present the work to fellow students and the instructor in
the last few weeks of the class. Prior to start the final project, the
student must provide a written proposal with specific description and
objective of the project to the instructor. The instructor will provide
any necessary feedback and may ask the student to modify or rewrite the
proposal as agreed upon.

unless the student has a formal written excuse or prior approval by the
